Job Description Bottini Waste Solutions is looking for an experienced, well-rounded CDL driver who has spent years in the waste industry and is comfortable running multiple platforms. This role covers automated side load (ASL), front end load (FEL), and roll-off routes, hauling residential and commercial waste, recycling, and roll-off containers to designated disposal, transfer, or recycling facilities. We're looking for someone who can move between platforms as needed and bring a steady, professional approach to every route. Duties and Responsibilities Safely operate ASL, FEL, and roll-off trucks, including right-hand driver's position on certain equipment, observing legal and defensive driving practices.

Identify and report containers in need of repair or replacement; position and return containers properly so lids/doors are secured and driveways or traffic are not blocked. Perform simple vehicle maintenance — check lights, tires, fluids — and keep the interior of the vehicle clean. Observe all traffic laws, posted speed limits, DOT, OSHA, and company safety policies. Attend required training and meetings; assist other drivers as directed to meet customer needs. Perform other related duties as assigned by management or dispatch.
